WELCOME

You made it! Here it is... the blog where you get to sit back and laugh at - or be completely horrified by - life with 5 kids, 2 parents, some frogs, a cat & a rabbit (and those are just the creatures we know about).

It's My Own Fault

My days are crazy and chaotic. That's to be expected with 5 kids. To be perfectly honest, however, I know that we create at least 90% of our own craziness.

Take the morning routine, for example. Two days a week, I leave the house at 7:15 am with all 5 kids, drop 4/5 of the children at their school which isn't in our town, return to a different part of our town to bring Charlotte to the babysitter, and then end up in an entirely new town to go to work.

I try not to whine about it, though, because it is all our choice. It is our choice to send the kids to a school that is neither near our house nor near my work. So why complain? But, just for fun, I logged our stops into my GPS this morning to see just how ridiculous the routine really is:

Just plain silly...

So there it is in living color. My ridiculous commute. Watch out, folks... crazy mama driving.
